I wanted to upgrade my patio furniture to something a little better than the metal stuff I had before. This is perfect. The wood is very nice, the cushions seem really durable. There's a little bit of a smell when you first open the packaging up, but it quickly goes away. After much use over the past few months, we've had no problems. 

Pros: Great looking set. Seems durable
Cons: assembly is a little difficult, cushions a little hard
